Choose a mug first, then decide how the message will work on its shape and surface. Personalisation is confirmed against the actual model, artwork and production method.
Start with the surface, not just the picture
A curved handle, contrasting inner colour or textured finish can change where artwork sits. Select a ceramic, glass or travel format from the catalogue and tell us whether the message should face the drinker or the person opposite. The usable print area is confirmed for that specific mug.
One design or individual names?
A single company logo across an order is a different artwork task from a separate name on every mug. State how many versions you need and supply names in a checked list. Match each spelling to its recipient before approving the proof; a text preview is only a discussion aid.
Approve a usable proof
Ask for the proposed decoration method, placement and artwork requirements in the quotation. Confirm care instructions for the chosen mug and decoration. Do not assume that every printed mug has the same dishwasher, microwave or scratch resistance.
